Not sure what I think of the reports of Labour & the SNP working together to prevent no deal in autumn.

would it be right to presume they have written off Scot Labour as beyond salvageable for the foreseeable future at this point?

the idea of stopping no deal seems increasingly remote but if could happen by parties working together, a labour and snp partnership would be the least objectionable by some margin is basically how i break it down to an extent

I assume the potential for a detente between Labour and the SNP is following a logic we've talked about on here often and I'm fairly comfortable with it

Writing off Scottish Labour is largely a no-brainer as far as I can tell at the moment

“After that first vote of no confidence there is a period when I think common sense could break out across the House,” Shadow Chancellor John McDonnell told LBC’s Iain Dale at the Edinburgh festival yesterday. “It would be a Labour government because we wouldn’t enter into coalitions or pacts. But it would be a Labour government which had a particular purpose — that is to stop a no deal.”
(No further commentary because there isn't anything they can say that won't sound daft)

interesting revelation about mr alasdair milne, just casually tweeted out
The day after Alasdair Milne was sacked by Margaret Thatcher, my boss came into the office and told me "That's it, no more investigative journalism.""What do you mean?""None, across the whole BBC, until this dies down. We've had it from the top."It has never recovered.— GeorgeMonbiot (@GeorgeMonbiot) August 7, 2019

calz since we were talking about it upthread a bit, are you aware of this book?
At the launch of Frances Ryan’s brilliant book “Crippled” which graphically exposes the brutality of austerity on disabled people. @Dis_PPL_Protest pic.twitter.com/wll4TjpZne— John McDonnell MP (@johnmcdonnellMP) August 3, 2019
― gyac, Wednesday, 7 August 2019 19:49 (four years ago) link
oh yes of course. Not read it yet but I daily read Dr Frances Ryan on twitter and she get's some ridiculous abuse. Like when she was nervously live blogging about applying for PIP after her DLA expired and people telling her she doesn't need it because obv she's loaded. It's one of them books which I wouldn't download from disreputable sites like where I get the rest of my stuff, because she's a good person doing important work and i wouldn't want to deprive her of any income.
― calzino, Wednesday, 7 August 2019 19:57 (four years ago) link
She was also very nice to me when I was going through a very low period a couple of years back (missus tried topping herself after PIP nightmare etc and i was on the verge of doing myself in tbh).
― calzino, Wednesday, 7 August 2019 20:00 (four years ago) link
sometimes just an encouraging and sympathetic comment from a stranger on twitter can mean something when you are going through shit times.
― calzino, Wednesday, 7 August 2019 20:07 (four years ago) link
Frances Ryan is one of the nicest public-facing people on Twitter. People who aggressively don’t acknowledge that DLA/PIP are there for disabled people in or out of work regardless of income are just arseholes.
― suzy, Wednesday, 7 August 2019 20:26 (four years ago) link
some people are just incapable of thinking (could stop there tbh) of how problematic it is for people with physical or other disabilities to travel from a to b or simply just exist in this country. I think Frances is saying the media rhetoric has made it easier for nasty governments like we have had in recent times to make the unthinkable quite acceptable, and it has predictably resulted in deaths and disenfranchisement and lowering living standards for disabled people, and nobody cares. fuck these people.
